For visual novels with no input besides the occasional choice, I personally like to enjoy the music and story without having to worry about skill issues or in some cases, it being hard to get past a certain section that prevents me from progressing. And a couple things most visual novels have that movies don’t would be the ability to go at your own pace and choices that alter the dialogue and the overall ending.

Though, that’s just my take on it from my perspective from someone who likes both no-input visual novel games and normal games.
